I have found that my new (to me) 2008 S Type has the original battery with a May 2008 date sticker. The car only has 38,000 miles and was garaged most of it's life. However, living in Florida I don't want to take a chance on it failing. I have found a reasonably price replacement at NAPA. Is there anything unique about the process once the new battery is installed.

 

If you like window one-touch up you'll have to re-do it - see handbook.

May well have to reprogram radio presets.

Car will have to relearn its fuelling so will run a bit rough initially. Start & idle for 5 mins will help.

2008 is fairly young for battery on these cars, believe it or not! May well last quite a bit longer but it's largely luck or some such.

 

Thanks. That is what I expected. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't anything unusual
